Hormone central...it regulates other hormone producing organs (Endocrine System). There are anterior and posterior sections of this tiny gland. The posterior releases hormones that affect blood pressure and breast milk. The anterior pituitaryis much more active. It controls the hormone systems responsible for growth and thyroid, adrenal and sexual function.
Thank-you, that is all.
